There's the raw data and the interpretation. HL7 has a datatype suitable for the raw data (SLIST) Or you could just dump an image in DV_MULTIMEDIA (png would be appropriate, but any image format would be ok)
pr, qrs etc, would be archetype entries - so you'd have data as a DV_MULTIMEDIA or an SLIST and then the derived useful values as additional archetype entries. just my 0.01 euro. or maybe it's just a 1 forint ;-) Grahame Sam Heard wrote: > Hi All > > We are looking to get on this road ourselves.
